[question] Can I pass --vs-args or --ninja-args arguments to the meson tool when executing build command

[NiceBlueChai]

What is your question?

I want to execute meson compile -C. -j[N_JOBS] [TARGET] --vs-args=xx,xx when I run meson.build()

Have you read the CONTRIBUTING guide?

Hi @NiceBlueChai

Thanks for your question.

What specific arguments you want to pass? The recommendation would be trying to not have to pass anything in the command line of meson, but define them in the Meson toolchain files (via MesonToolchain)

Any feedback here @NiceBlueChai?

Things like -n[JOBS] are already automatically added by Conan, and it is possible that the other are better managed by toolchains.
